Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Golovkin Will Return To Reality on Oct. 17

[TripleGFightFan]

Triple G is sending lemmings back to golden boy in a bodybag and Oscar back to modeling in fishnets while snorting coke.

Highly unlikely.

It's a ppv where one fighter isn't engaging in trash talking, the other is trying and is horrible at it. So here is Oscar trying to do it for them. The end.

plausible explanation except this is normal oscar whether he is promoting a fight or not. its a good explanation but the reality is this is oscar. i wouldnt be surprised if hes taken his jealousy of floyd and aimed it at ggg

[Cinci Champ]

i got to admit i do think lemeiux will make ggg look human there is no doubt in my mind on that but at the same time i would be confident in betting anything on ggg to win. well see at the end of the day there is no question lemeiux is ggg hardest fight by far so take make of it what u will. i dont want to get into the why ggg has not fought good opposition but the reality is lemiuex is his toughest opponent yet and its not even close so i could see him getting off on ggg at times. chances are tho he will fade late and thats when ggg will lay down the beating in 8th or so round. just got strange feeling after this fight it will be one those over reactions where people saying ggg was a hype job even if he wins and that canelo or cotto would destroy him stuff like that. well see but thats usually how it goes as soon as a puncher is taken to the deep end in a fight for the first time

The first time? He went 11 against Murray who is much more skilled than Lemieux. He went 10 against Ouma back in 2011, and he went the full 8 rounds in the only three decision victories on his record. Golovkin is no stranger to going deep into a fight.

And if you think Golovkin is nothing but a puncher, then you DKSAB. But you have proven that time after time in your posts so that is nothing new to anyone.


As for the topic of the thread, the only people who have been making unrealistic statements are Lemieux and Oscar. GGG has hardly said a word leading up to the fight, as is his usual practice. Golovkin is totally grounded in reality and if anyone will be having a hard landing back to reality after this fight, it will be Lemieux, Oscar and those who are delirious enough to believe what they are selling.

Last time Someone talked so much garbage, Stevens, GGG went with intent

He went in with intent on hurting him. I think they want GGG to get mad, because throwing him off his game is their only shot.

not interested until little G stops ducking ward. they got this guy high on a boxing cloud and he's calling out big name little guys. he's struggling to make 160.its for the big pay day knowing good and well that cotto,alvared and mayweather can't hurt him.Gaylovkin is a coward.

God you are so ******. Find one legit source that GGG has ever struggled to make 160. In fact, people are not clear Ward can make 168. Find one. Just one.

GGG came in at 157 last fight. He is a smaller MW, and he has no issues making 160.

Which is why dumb truckers like you want him to fight a LHW holding azz Ward, who will use 15-20 pounds (if fought today before GGG moves up) to ho,d on for dear life.

And since you are so vastly uninformed, Ward has turned down two GGG fights.

In fact, Ward only offered a contract after GGG had a PPV, and even that contract was for a fight in the fall of 2016.

Ward wanted them to both do one more tune-up, and fight in fall.

Seriously, a contract like that was a joke, and public relation stunt meant to convince simple minded fools Wards is making courageous divisions.

Ward is begging to fight a guy arguably two weight classes below him while not fighting anyone near his own natural weight.

And you can't handle it, so you just make junk up about GGG's weight. Fool!

Anything Can happen

However, as decent as Lemeiux is, it'll take a lucky shot or two for him to really win this fight.

He says he is coming forward because GGG has never fought going backwards.

Except he fought going backwards at times against Stevens, who was also supposed to be a big puncher.

I don't think Lemeiux has the chin to last an onslaught that Stevens got.

But then again, few do.

I appreciate your posting the straight dope on the GGG/Ward situation. What Ward's fans have been saying lately seemed a bit ridiculous to me, and now I know why.

I'm glad to see Oscar so confident about his fighter because he will certainly need it. I'm sure David feels this way too as does Golovkin, but truth be told everything changes when the first punch lands.

I just don't feel Lemieux is quite ready for this fight. He just doesn't move his head and back's straight up too much. I just think he will get blasted out fairly early for these reasons by GGG. I applaud the young Lemieux for stepping up when many other big names have ran from Golovkin.

good post man

not sure about that?

from what I heard Lemieux loses a lot more weight than Golovkin, check the 30-day weights if they released it

I dont think Golovkin struggles to make 160, and he stays active.
